With this one it is so basic not much screen scraping was required. Just a few things to check if logged in etc.

Actually over a year ago I 70% finished a windows program that allows you to view galleries and photos, upload pictures using drag and drop, delete galleries and photos etc. It took a lot of screen scraping and mucking around but then i thought whats the point, because I thought pbase would probably add this stuff to their website them selves... i.e. why have a pc program to do it... but pbase hasn't changed much so i might finish it off if anyone is interested... i can send you a prototype version in a few days if you would like to play around with it.

I don't use Windows that much either but if you are looking for a beta tester, I could help.

Please let me know if there is a problem or improvement suggestions at geometrikal at hotmail dotty com

I just installed it and it works like a charm! Since it doesn't support a new gallery creation under an existing gallery, I had to move it manually, but that was a not a problem (may be a future enchancment?)

This happens because to update the photo title, I have to write all the data shown on the typical PBase edit image page. So I have to try to create the correct EXIF data from the lightroom data. I will try to recreate the problem.

On a side note, if and when the PBase developers implement an API (this would not be hard) then we all could have third party programs of the same level as those that exist for Flickr, Smugmug etc.
